OWINGS MILLS, Md. — The Ravens will be without cornerback Jimmy Smith for Sunday’s season opener, but all other players are expected to play against Arizona.
Tight end Mark Andrews (foot) and wide receiver Marquise Brown (hip) sat out Friday’s practice, but their availability isn’t in doubt despite both being designated as questionable on the final injury report. Brown also sat out last Friday’s practice, but Andrews’ absence came as more of a surprise after he hadn’t been listed on the injury report all week. The pair combined for 12 catches for 255 yards and three touchdowns in the 59-10 win over Miami last Sunday.
Cornerback Marlon Humphrey (back), running back Mark Ingram (shoulder), and linebacker Tyus Bowser (groin) were also listed as questionable, but each will play against the Cardinals. Ingram and Bowser practiced all week while Humphrey was a limited participant Thursday and Friday after missing Wednesday’s workout.
“No concern about Marquise or Mark Andrews,” head coach John Harbaugh said. “Nope, no concern. No concern about any of those guys.”
Meanwhile, the Cardinals ruled out reserve offensive lineman Lamont Gaillard. Defensive end Jonathan Bullard is questionable after failing to practice all week.
Below is the final injury report of the week:
BALTIMORE
OUT: CB Jimmy Smith (knee)
QUESTIONABLE: TE Mark Andrews (foot), LB Tyus Bowser (groin), WR Marquise Brown (hip), CB Marlon Humphrey (back), RB Mark Ingram (shoulder)
ARIZONA
OUT: OL Lamont Gaillard (knee)
QUESTIONABLE: DL Jonathan Bullard (hamstring)
Ravens list Andrews, M. Brown, three others questionable for home opener
